What Venue???

So...planning a wedding can be stressful at the best of times, but personally I think the hardest part and a very early process is chosing the perfect wedding venue. Which venue will most reflect both of your tastes, be a stunning location, have enough room to comfortably seat all your guests, be avaliable on your chosen wedding date, have a good catering selection, friendly staff etc...your head spinning yet? In my experience as soon as you both have decided on a venue and a date then the rest of the planning will start falling into place.

Start by sitting down together and looking at your local wedding venues. If none of those take your fancy or are suitable for your capacity then start looking slightly further afield, maybe in your county or just outside. My recommendation, and I know this cant always be the case but try not to pick a venue that is further than 30 mins max driving distance from your church, civil wedding ceremony or family home. This is purely for the convienience of your guests and family. You want them to spend the majority of their time enjoying the event you have created for them rather than being stuck in traffic or getting lost.

As Dulce is based in Leicestershire and I would love you to take a look at some of my favourite and highly recommended  Leicestershire wedding venues and see if any of them appeal to you for your big day:

1. THE CITY ROOMS, LEICESTER



A stunning Georgian venue based in the heart of Leicester's City Centre, The City Rooms has always been my favourite. Its breath-taking ballroom exceeds all expectations, with two further rooms downstairs as well as a very modern bar area, there is ample space for your guests to enjoy the day.
